Philip shrugged and reminded, saying, "Juan Parker, I advise you to keep a low profile."

"Why do you care? Philip, I used to treat you as my friend, but from now on, I'm coming at you."

Juan was furious. Philip was already bankrupt, so how could he still act like this?

What right did he have?

A well-known wastrel was actually the young master of Clarke Group.

Back then, when Juan first found out about it, he was also shocked.

However, it was different now. He had no fear!

Philip Clarke would forever be rubbish!

Moreover, with so many people here today, he refused to believe that Philip would dare to do anything to him.

Philip frowned and said coldly, "Juan, where did you get the courage to talk to me in such a manner? From the person behind you? Was the last beating not enough for you?”

Upon hearing this, Juan subconsciously stepped back and yelled a few words along the lines of, "Just you wait, I'll deal with you later!" Then, he entered the hotel lobby with his female companion.

Looking at Juan who had run with his tail tucked between his legs, Philip shook his head helplessly and sighed. He did not rush to go in but chose to smoke a cigarette instead.

The party officially began and the agenda was pretty boring. Philip stood beside Wynn all the time and noticed that his wife seemed unhappy without a smile on her face.

"Hey, what are you thinking about? Is something troubling you?"

Philip nudged Wynn with his arm.

"Huh?"

Wynn was startled for a moment. She tucked her hair behind her ear and smiled faintly. "It's nothing. I'll head to the ladies."

After that, Wynn walked to the bathroom alone, holding the long skirt of the evening gown.

Philip was unperturbed and glanced around casually. He noticed a man in the crowd who was trailing after Wynn not long after she left, pretending to be walking around unintentionally but going in the direction of the ladies.

It was not an unusual occurrence, but Philip felt that something was amiss. He frowned slightly, put down his wine glass, and followed suit.

Philip followed the sneaky man to the washroom. As expected, after looking around, the man went straight into the women's washroom!

At this moment, Wynn was standing in front of the mirror and looking at the woman with exquisite makeup in the mirror. Her eyes were a little lost, and her thoughts were unknown. "Keep it up!"

Wynn cheered for herself, shook her head, and bent over to wash her hands. She then prepared to go out.

However, a man in a black suit suddenly rushed in from the door of the women's washroom with a sullen face, glaring at Wynn!

"Who are you?!"

Wynn stepped back in fright and leaned against the sink. She watched as the man locked the door and her heart suddenly went cold!

The man looked at her coldly and said, "The person who's about to take your life!"

A shiny silver dagger slipped out from his sleeve, dazzling under the cold light!

Wynn went pale in fright. She pressed one hand tightly on the sink as the other formed a fist. Her lips trembled slightly, but she asked with all her strength, "Who sent you?"

She was not a fool. The other party had planned this for a long time and came prepared! She wanted to call for help, but she knew that if she did that, she would die even sooner! Therefore, Wynn chose to drag it out.

"Sorry, I can't tell you that."

The man smiled coldly, licked the corner of his mouth, and said, "Don't worry, this won't hurt."

After that, the man took two steps forward and tightened his hold on the dagger!

She was just a weak woman, but the payment was five million.

This job was really profitable.

"How much? I'll pay double!"

Wynn stepped back and gritted her teeth.

She did not know who she offended, but she could tell that this was a hired killer.

Was it because of the company's new drug?

The man hesitated, frowned, and looked at Wynn as if the offer attracted him.

In the next instant, however, he grinned and sneered, "We have rules in this business. We'll never betray the employer."

After that, the man's eyes intensified to reveal a cold light. His whole body sprinted forward while he aimed the dagger at Wynn's chest! "Argh!"

At that moment, Wynn screamed in fright. Her eyes widened as the image of the sharp dagger going toward her filled her vision.
